Three-year starter at Miami Northwestern, considered a four-star recruit.

College

Became the starter in the fourth game of his true freshman season. Big East rookie of the year in 2011. Led the Cardinals to the Big East title and was conference offensive player of the year as a sophomore in 2012, and was MVP as Louisville beat Florida 33-23 in the Sugar Bowl. Last year, as a junior, he threw 31 TD passes and only four interceptions.

In the draft

On New Year’s Day, Bridgewater said he would skip his senior season to enter the draft. His draft status dropped after a sketchy pro day performance. He appeared to be falling out of the first round May 8 when the Vikings traded their second- and fourth-round selections to Seattle for the 32nd and final pick of the first round.

Chris Colabello hit a two-run home run, R.A. Dickey threw seven shutout innings and the Toronto Blue Jays beat the Kansas City Royals 5-2 in testy matchup Sunday, taking three of four from the AL's top team.

Charlie Morton pitched five-hit ball for seven innings, Neil Walker hit a review-aided home run and the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the Cincinnati Reds 3-0 Sunday in a testy game in which benches cleared after stars Andrew Mcutchen and Brandon Phillips were hit by pitches.
